I have loved Japanese culture since I was young. It's so interesting to learn about the different aspects and especially the traditional clothing. Kimono are absolutely so beautiful!
It's hard but it's beautiful and now I know why women rarely can wear kimono without the help of others, except you. Sutan is really fortunate to have a mother who is good at educating children, cooking and of course wearing kimono. I can't wait to see Sutan wearing his own kimono.

I know Japan can have some pretty humid weather.. Do these clothes get hot or uncomfortable?? I'm just curious, I live in the desert and I can't imagine that many layers ToT lol
@@naritruwireve1381 yes it’s super hot in a Kimono in the summer which is why there is a Yukata which is similar shape but much thinner material. Even though not many women wear Kimonos anymore there are many women that wear A Yukata in the summer for festivals and fireworks shows It’s been so modernized that you can get a pretty cheap Yukata kit. It comes with everything you need, some even come with wooden sandals as well. I have a couple, I was born in Japan and raised from 5 years old in the States by my Japanese parents and I own 3 sets. They all have the obi (belt like material around the waist and a bow that has a metal piece so you can just tuck that piece in the back of the obi so you don’t have to do all that work Moe did in her video to make the back part beautiful ☺️
@@CandiOsaka Common dress always has some measure of practicality in mind. More ostentatious styles of kimono, like for oiran and nobility, were designed with the necessity of help in mind; however, in a time when most people (i.e.: lower classes) did not have servants or necessarily anyone else capable of or willing to lend a hand, a strict two-person system doesn't work.
Very cool! I would love to see also what you call each piece you put on, and how you care for these elegant pieces, like how you clean them. Thank you for your videos, I really enjoy them! Sutan is so cute! What age can she wear Kimono?
I don't know what's the earliest age babies can wear a kimono, but Japanese people have a tradition called 'shichigosan' where they dress up children in traditional clothes at the age of 3, 5 and 7.
Nowadays most people get their kimono professionally cleaned by a kimono specialized cleaner. The traditional way is to undo all the seams in a kimono and return the kimono into its horizontal pieces of silk and wash those and resow it but you can also do an abbreviated wash where the kimono is not taken apart. If it’s a cotton or wool kimono you an easily wash at home but silk shrinks/stains when it gets wet so it needs to be handled more carefully. Obi are not washed. Hope that answers your question.
Yes, I would also like to know the Japanese and English name for each piece too. For the caring, I think they will need to send out the cloths to dry cleaning store. It would be great to know more!
This comment was almost a year ago but in case someone still wonders about the names of each piece: [disclaimer I am just an enthusiast so I might be wrong. Also, many pieces can have more than one name!] The underkimono is called nagajuban. The kimono itself is called Kimono and in this case it's an Iromuji (solid color). The ties that are used to close the kimono are called koshihimo (the one that ties at the waist/hips) and munahimo (the one that ties under the chest). I am not sure what the name of the tie with the square cloth at the back is but it might be a special type of Datejime. The wide pink piece that covers the chest is called obita. The kimono belt is called obi and in this case it's a type of Nagoya obi. The cord that holds the obi is called obijime. The "pillowy-thingie" used to shape the knot is called obimakura. The scarf that covers the obimakura is called obiage. Also, the type of knot she did is called Taiko musubi. I think that's all! As for cleaning: It highly depends on the type of kimono. Cotton or Polyester modern kimonos you can throw in the wash and they will be fine but silk kimonos need to be send to a professional. Also, have in mind that kimono is not worn directly over the skin and therefore doesn't need to be wash regularly . Instead, after wearing it just needs to be hanged in a well ventilated area overnight (or for a week if you are as lazy as I am). For more info on this topic in particular, I highly recommend watching Billy Matsunaga's video here in youtube called "The kimono cleaning guide".
Me : Watching how to wear kimono Also me : wait i don't have a kimono Edit: Thanks for 14 likes ( ◠‿◠ ) Edit : OMG thanks for 35 likes Edit : It's 83L now!
please give us a tutorial on how you do your hair-- the hairstyle you wear with your kimono. it's so elegant! warm wishes to you, moto and sutan from manila!
I think just the sheer task of putting on a kimono each morning preps a person for productivity. If I put all that work into putting on my clothes every day I would be so diligent and productive throughout the rest of the day!
If I had to put this much effort into merely getting dressed every day, that’d be productive enough. Dinner? Housework? I doubt I’d even get past the kimono.
My family was under this impression too when they visited Japan. No matter how "lowly" or "important" the job was, the workers put so much care and effort into what they do and that makes all the difference.
So pretty. I love kimonos they look incredible. Only have ever worn a yukata but my friend is from japan and for a school event her mom wore a really pretty kimono. ❤️
Hi Kimono Mom! I absolutely love your kimono! I have always been fascinated with kimonos and so I would love to see a separate video of your collection of kimonos! How you keep them clean? How you store them? Which one is your favorite? Do some of your kimonos have a story behind them? Oh so many questions! 😊😊😊
This is so amazing and educational! I’m Japanese born in Japan but raised in the US from 5 years old. My mom is from Kyoto. She can put on her own Kimono but I have only wore a Kimono 2 times in my life. Even Japanese that are born and raised in Japan don’t have the knowledge and skill to put on their own Kimono these days. Many will hire someone like Moe to put it on them plus Kimonos are so expensive which is why In her moving video they were being very very gentle with it. Again most will rent a Kimono for an occasion. It is very hot in the summer so we wear a Yukata which is similar shape but much thinner. It’s easier to wear a Yukata since there is only 1 layer and these days they sell Yukata Kits that come with everything you need and some include wooden sandals too. Most of the cheap kits come with a faux obi (waist band) with a faux bow that is a fake bow that looks like it was made with the obi but it will have a metal piece on it so you can just stick it in your waist band in the back to make it look like you spent the time to put it on and tied it. Younger girls may have never worn a Kimono but Yukata is worn at summer festivals and firework shows. Moe does a beautiful job! I used to love seeing my mom’s Kimonos when I was growing up.
It's a lovely costume. It causes one to wonder how long a kimono like this is worn throughout the day? Is it easy to make restroom breaks? Why is it double layered? The beautifully patterned flower material beneath the baby blue over layer was too pretty to hide. Perhaps different patterns as these are interchangeable? I'm always intrigued by the kimono kitchen apron you use when cooking. It's clever and very useful. 👋😊👍
@@danthanh98 yeah i binged watch her videos lol BUT it made it more confusing. Arent kimonos very expensive though? And to own not just 1? Is her husband somekind of a low key billionaire????
@@alecicruz388 her husband is a manager (not sure if he owns) many restaurants. You can tell how wealthy they are if they have an apartment in Tokyo with a small garden (her previous home). And yes kimonos are super expensive and hard to put on by yourself and they need to be cleaned and dried by experts.
When I visited Tokyo I was able to experience being dressed in a kimono and walking around Asakusa for my friend’s birthday celebration! I was absolutely in love with it and the ladies that dressed me were amazing and so skilled. Seeing you dress yourself is amazing! And what a gorgeous kimono 😍 I hope next time I visit I’m able to experience it once again and find out more about the history of kimono! Love your channel!
Once, when i was in a vacation in Tokyo, I saw a lady with kimono in a commuter line, Such a great experience to saw a beautiful culture, right infront my eyes.
I see why it’s common for Japanese women to have someone help them to put on the kimono. To do it by yourself is amazing. I think this is probably something that was part as your training to be a maiko.
I would feel so claustrophobic in one of those 😭 I was holding my breath watching her put all those belts on and knowing it would take forever to take them off in an emergency
It really doesn't, it may take 40 minutes or so to put it on if you don't have a lot of practice, but it takes less than a minute to take it off. It only uses the most basic square knots and they come apart really easily. It's also way more comfortable than you think.
@@Arianrhod9 is it that comfortable since i heard that they have to wear diapers and the way they walk when wearing one is very unusual for others to look at/uncomfortable (for themselves)
@@Shakooky are you talking about kimono or yukata? Yukata has way fewer layers and therefore easily get undress or lifted up but Kimono is far more complex (not everyone can put on kimono by themselves- they needs help from others). Also, Kimono is pretty tight around your body, it would not be easy to lift it up like hanbok (in terms of tightness-looseness only cause I dont think anyone can lift up hanbok in the toilet without it touching the floor or the toilet surface). And the diaper thing is what i hear from a girl living (permanently) in Japan, I'd been there too.
I was already thinking it, but after watching this video I'm absolutely sure: you're THE Yamato Nadeshiko. I didn't know it was possible to dress up by oneself, you're amazing. I'm sure you'd be pretty with any dress, but nothing brings out your beauty like a kimono. I'd also like to see more hairstyles that go well with kimono (as separate videos, for sure I'm not expecting you wearing them while cooking)
Just lift it up :3 It’s hard though. well I am from Bangladesh and our traditional dress is Saree. (The one I am wearing on my dp). Pretty much same peeing issue as kimono. We just lift it up and pee 😬 but the thing I do is drink less water so that I don’t have to go through that hardwork in toilet 😶
Thank you for this video!! I am very interested in Japanese culture!! Everything always looks so beautiful. I hope to one day visit your country and see all it's beautiful traditions in person.💕
Honestly, I can't blame you for liking kimonos since when you were a child. I felt and still fell the same thing with medieval swords and the armors; in fact, I'm an apprentice knight 😃
Didn't have to do this to give me interest in the Japanese culture, I've been exposed to it when I was little, about 4 years old with the colorful media called anime. Anime lead me to many other things and honors that the Japanese do, from how they treat one another, to how they eat and dress, and my main drive of interest in Japan, the shrines. That's why I'm learning Japanese and in October (fall) of 2021, I'm moving from America to Kyoto, Japan for college, so I can finally live the dream I've always wanted
@@cjtorres5917 Thank you so much, unfortunately I did not get accepted, but to me, as long as I get to Japan, I will be satisfied, so I applied to many schools, and if that doesn't work, I decided to move there after getting accepted for a job at this site for foreigners. I don't care how I get there, as long as I get there, I am happy. Yes, I am aware that Japan has flaws like any other place, but I truly want to live there, and that is why I want to do this. sorry for the paragraph 😅
Anime can give you a glimpse of Japanese culture, but living in Japan has its downside. Being a traveler in Japan is wonderful, but living there and starting a long term life is very different. I have many friends who went to live in Japan after university, and they learned that the culture can be quite toxic. Please don’t only look through rose colored glasses, because the disappointment may be too much to handle.
I've got a question after watching this: Does the obi, correct me if I'm wrong about the name, and other pieces making it up, act similar to an underbust corset by supporting the back and chest?
francois fofo I’m wondering this too. And what the purpose was of tucking all the fabric under that rigid middle piece, it doesn’t look like u can see it at the end, that makes me wonder if it has some kind of symbolic meaning. I lived in Japan for 3 years and while there went to a sumo match and learned that every single thing they did and wore had meaning, it was very interesting.
You mean the red thing she has on her back before the obi? That’s just a support cushion to make her torso as flat as possible by filling in the dip of her lower back. It helps stabilize the obi and helps it keep its shape. No symbolism or hidden meaning - pure practicality :-)
Denise you mean the pale pink thing she puts on in front of her torso before the obi? Or the red cushion she used on her back? Either way they are just support devices to help the obi look better by giving it structure. No meaning whatsoever lol.
@@denise9926 you're welcome! I was worried I sounded like I was laughing at your comment since I ended it with "lol" but glad I don't seem to have inadvertently offended you!
Can you explain slower and more detailed please Moe-さん? I just bought a second hand yukata/kimono (I didn't know much about the difference, so if you'd like please explain about this as well) 🙏🏻
Dzień dobry. Prezentacja całego procesu zakładania kimona jest wspaniała.Kimono przepiękne. This kimono is absolutely beautiful and awesome.Respect for beautiful culture 🇯🇵👏All the best from Poland 🕊️🇵🇱🤝
That spot light strip in the back ground. I don't know if that is just a shadow or it's burn in. If it's burn in, it's a sign that those spot light does not get enough ventilation and is a hazard for overheating.. careful which it may cause an accident, like a fire.
I scrolled so far just to find this one comment. I don't think they are shadows because I don't think you could put a light source somewhere that would cast those four shadows simultaneously. So then I, too, thought they were burn marks, but that seemed too extreme (but possible). Then I thought they might be dirt spots. Maybe the heat affects the ceiling material in some way to make it slightly stickier for dust in those spots. Or maybe dust is caught in the rising warm air from the lights and gets deposited on the ceiling. Or maybe a combination of those effects. Or something else entirely. All I know is I was very distracted by this mystery the whole time watching the video. But by this point it's moot anyway because they moved out of that apartment.
Any chance you could suggest places one can buy a already done kimono? Not a yukata, but not a very expensive one. Maybe a second hand place of a short?
I am here because I saw you in Paolo´s video. You are so beautiful and elegant! I love how you teach about how to wear Kimono´s and how to do the tradition hair styles. Its so lovely to see how you care to take care of heritage like that :) Thank you for sharing!
Thank you MOE for the wonderful demonstration . With respect, you look very beautiful ! Here are two flowers , one for you , and one for your assistant , SUTAN . 🌺🇯🇵🌺
Wow momm, membutuhkan waktu yang lama, untuk memakai kimono dan harus dengan keahlian... Maaf saya menulis dalam bahasa Indonesia... Terima kasih momm.
Thank you for this video Moe! Japan is my favourite country since I was a child. I went to Japan 2 years ago and I bought a lot of kimono and Aori, but I don't know how to wear them. Can you also show us the best places and stores where we can buy kimonos in Tokyo and Kyoto eventually? When I was in Tokyo I went to Asakusa to buy Kimono, because some people recommended me to go there.
Thank you for watching! This is my first “GRWM” Please let me know what you think☺️✨
Amazing, Moe-san! Thank you so much!
How long does it take you to put it on? It’s so intricate, kimono is art
着物大好きです高いけど😅
Beautiful! Thank you, excellent music choice again. Hope to wear a kimono one day.
I have loved Japanese culture since I was young. It's so interesting to learn about the different aspects and especially the traditional clothing. Kimono are absolutely so beautiful!

My hands: No! You don't !

Too relatable😵
That looks so complicated! It's incredible that she can do it so well and quickly too.

omg i love your videos, it's so interesting culturally and your personality is just beautiful as is Sutan, keep up the good work
海外の結婚式で着物を着るために一時期習っていましたが、残念な事に忘れてしまいました。
洋服なら一瞬で着られてしまいますが、日々の動作ひとつひとつをこう時間掛けて丁寧に行うのも悪くないですね。
本当に着るのがめんどくさいね！難しいね
Didn't have to do this to give me interest in the Japanese culture, I've been exposed to it when I was little, about 4 years old with the colorful media called anime. Anime lead me to many other things and honors that the Japanese do, from how they treat one another, to how they eat and dress, and my main drive of interest in Japan, the shrines. That's why I'm learning Japanese and in October (fall) of 2021, I'm moving from America to Kyoto, Japan for college, so I can finally live the dream I've always wanted
I hope you have a wonderful time and learn a lot. Best wish for your life and studies in beautiful Kyoto!
@@cjtorres5917 Thank you so much, unfortunately I did not get accepted, but to me, as long as I get to Japan, I will be satisfied, so I applied to many schools, and if that doesn't work, I decided to move there after getting accepted for a job at this site for foreigners. I don't care how I get there, as long as I get there, I am happy. Yes, I am aware that Japan has flaws like any other place, but I truly want to live there, and that is why I want to do this. sorry for the paragraph 😅
Anime can give you a glimpse of Japanese culture, but living in Japan has its downside. Being a traveler in Japan is wonderful, but living there and starting a long term life is very different. I have many friends who went to live in Japan after university, and they learned that the culture can be quite toxic. Please don’t only look through rose colored glasses, because the disappointment may be too much to handle.
@@mizocutie sir I am aware of that. read my replies
全てが完璧ですね！so beautiful kistuke.（and you😊）何回も何回も見ちゃいます。特に帯結びとおはしょりんとこ。
Absolutely incredible and beautiful. Perhaps one day please explain the meaning and purpose of each piece of clothing. Amazing as usual Moe 🙏
I've got a question after watching this: Does the obi, correct me if I'm wrong about the name, and other pieces making it up, act similar to an underbust corset by supporting the back and chest?
That’s beautiful and so confusing 😂lol how can u remember all that stuff ❤️ur culture tho ..
i would love to have a kimono myself! maybe someday when i will visit japan ♥
well that looks so difficult 😅
next men's Kimono please😁
thank you so much for teaching me this! i always struggle to wear this for special events 😅😅. but i know 😌❤️❤️❤️
私は現在、イタリアに住んでいます。何度か日本の文化紹介の為に、着物を着る事が度々ありました。
自分では着れないので、いつも着付けが出来る友達にお願いしていました。
Moeさんが、たとえ舞妓さんをやっておられたとしても、自分で着物が着れると言うのは、とても素晴らしい事ですね。
素晴らしいです！なんてなんて綺麗な着付けでしょう。。これは、もえさんの若い時にそうとう訓練した努力の賜物ですね。
誰よりもお手本にしたい着付けです。お着物のセンスも素敵です。編集もいいですね。見せていただいて有難うございました。
aaaaaah kimonos are so preatyyyyyyyyyyyy id love to get to wear one one day
so cool... full respect 😊👏👏👏
Beautiful. I would like to try it. How to use the bathroom in this outfit? Thank you for sharing ;)
Amazing, the layering of the Obi takes a long time! What’s the use of the back buckle, pure aesthetic or is there a meaning behind it?
francois fofo I’m wondering this too. And what the purpose was of tucking all the fabric under that rigid middle piece, it doesn’t look like u can see it at the end, that makes me wonder if it has some kind of symbolic meaning. I lived in Japan for 3 years and while there went to a sumo match and learned that every single thing they did and wore had meaning, it was very interesting.
You mean the red thing she has on her back before the obi? That’s just a support cushion to make her torso as flat as possible by filling in the dip of her lower back. It helps stabilize the obi and helps it keep its shape. No symbolism or hidden meaning - pure practicality :-)
Denise you mean the pale pink thing she puts on in front of her torso before the obi? Or the red cushion she used on her back? Either way they are just support devices to help the obi look better by giving it structure. No meaning whatsoever lol.
Satopi3104 Oooohhhhh, that makes sense now...thank u ☺️
@@denise9926 you're welcome! I was worried I sounded like I was laughing at your comment since I ended it with "lol" but glad I don't seem to have inadvertently offended you!
あなたはとても美しい女性であり、母親です。 彼らは落ち着いていてとても素敵なので、私はあなたのビデオを見ます。 あなたは着物でとても美しく見えます。 ありがとうございました。
モエさんはじめまして！私はカナダの視聴者です。今，日本語を勉強します。
去年，京都で着物を着しました。着物を着るのは難しい，一人でやるのは本当にすごいです！
ビデオをありがとうございました！
Can you explain slower and more detailed please Moe-さん? I just bought a second hand yukata/kimono (I didn't know much about the difference, so if you'd like please explain about this as well) 🙏🏻
My arms feel tired from this video!! This is so beautiful wow
Dzień dobry.
Prezentacja całego procesu zakładania kimona jest wspaniała.Kimono przepiękne.
This kimono is absolutely beautiful and awesome.Respect for beautiful culture 🇯🇵👏All the best from Poland 🕊️🇵🇱🤝
Beautiful. And super hard to wear. Is the men's stuff equally as complicated? Hmm, prob not.
That spot light strip in the back ground. I don't know if that is just a shadow or it's burn in. If it's burn in, it's a sign that those spot light does not get enough ventilation and is a hazard for overheating.. careful which it may cause an accident, like a fire.
I scrolled so far just to find this one comment. I don't think they are shadows because I don't think you could put a light source somewhere that would cast those four shadows simultaneously. So then I, too, thought they were burn marks, but that seemed too extreme (but possible). Then I thought they might be dirt spots. Maybe the heat affects the ceiling material in some way to make it slightly stickier for dust in those spots. Or maybe dust is caught in the rising warm air from the lights and gets deposited on the ceiling. Or maybe a combination of those effects. Or something else entirely. All I know is I was very distracted by this mystery the whole time watching the video. But by this point it's moot anyway because they moved out of that apartment.
I think Kimono is very elegant and historical. It looks beautiful on you. Please do a tutorial on your hair and make up. I love the make up💕❤️
Great video! Very instructive! Lots of love from Spain!!!!
Any chance you could suggest places one can buy a already done kimono?
Not a yukata, but not a very expensive one.
Maybe a second hand place of a short?
Please make a video about sutan wearing a kimono! So kawaii!!!!
I am here because I saw you in Paolo´s video. You are so beautiful and elegant! I love how you teach about how to wear Kimono´s and how to do the tradition hair styles. Its so lovely to see how you care to take care of heritage like that :) Thank you for sharing!
How many kimonos do you have?
how about going to washroom ?
so pretty!! hopefully one day i could try wearing a kimono❤️
It looks so complicated but it's so beautiful! thank you for sharing. I hope someday I get to wear a kimono too 💖😍😊
Question, how do you go to the bathroom in that? Would you have to remove everything?
Amazing! I didn’t know kimono could be worn without any help 🤩
Thanks for sharing, that is great. There are so many layers and it is amazing you control it so well.
4:27 See you next time, Bye-bye 🌼
Kimono seem to comfortable, but if you get itchy under the obi, you probably just have to suffer. 😅
One of my dreams since I was little was to go to Japan so here I am learning how to put on a kimono
Nicely done!
😲 that's a workout for me 😂
Thank you MOE for the wonderful demonstration . With respect, you look very beautiful ! Here are two flowers , one for you , and one for your assistant , SUTAN . 🌺🇯🇵🌺
So elegant and gorgeous
Great to learn now we need Sutan to wear a baby Kimono 👶🏻😜
How long does it take for you to wear a kimono?
Wow momm, membutuhkan waktu yang lama, untuk memakai kimono dan harus dengan keahlian... Maaf saya menulis dalam bahasa Indonesia... Terima kasih momm.
I've always loved kimono, my favorite has always been the Junihitoe style as well as the beautiful Furisode.
Your hair is very beautiful in every video! It would be nice to see a tutorial how a mother does her hair so nicely like you😍
Thank you for this video Moe! Japan is my favourite country since I was a child. I went to Japan 2 years ago and I bought a lot of kimono and Aori, but I don't know how to wear them. Can you also show us the best places and stores where we can buy kimonos in Tokyo and Kyoto eventually? When I was in Tokyo I went to Asakusa to buy Kimono, because some people recommended me to go there.
For someone who already takes an hour to get ready wearing normal clothes, I don’t dare attempt wearing a kimono 😂
Meu Deus , você é tão linda ! すげえええ美人です!!!!!!
日本では珍しくなった正統派のお嬢様(^o^;
Omg so many layers! I couldnt do it myself haha. But thank you, i finally got to see how to put on a kimono! :)
